More information

Tall climber. Bears pink-apricot blooms with a cream reverse and a golden-apricot center. Fruity fragrance of medium intensity. Very double flowers, 9–10 in size, carried in small clusters. Slow to open. Continuous flowering throughout the season. Dark green, leathery foliage. Suitable for garden or landscape use. Blooms keep well when cut.

John Clements (1936–2007) bred roses from the late 1970s. His program combined English roses and other rose forms, with emphasis on fragrance, beauty, and disease resistance. Heirloom Roses raised about 10,000 seedlings annually, each evaluated individually; over four years of assessment, approximately five were selected to be named and introduced. Seedlings were inspected without spraying for insects or diseases and without fertilization. The method aimed to identify selections demonstrating both disease resistance and vigor.
